It was just too "Emo" for me.

And I was finding Japanese Rock stuff like DIR EN GREY that had a much harder and edgier sound.

Lost Prophet's song "Rooftops" is one of those songs that just makes me cringe.

But their earlier stuff like "Shinobi VS Dragon Ninja" was actually good.

I don‘t know man, i don‘t think they‘re bad or anything, they‘re just…. meh. Thousands of other bands in that time with the same sound.

They are as "meh" as Mumble Rap.

When 50 other bands or "rappers" sound exactly the same (or boy / girl Pop bands - or pretty much anything that becomes overdone and ubiquitous) it just starts to get stale. In the mid 2Ks, Emo styled Rock was everywhere and you couldn't escape it -- unless you listened to music from other countries. Japan's "Visual Kei" scene didn't sound anything at all like mainstream western music, and that's why I liked it.

But I'm sure to some people over there - if it's all that they ever hear 24 / 7, it will get stale to them too.

Fair To Midland is also better than Lost Prophets (and I didn't even like them at first, I only knew of them as "one of those bands that opened for DIR EN GREY")
